The total fatalities caused by motor accidents in 78 of the largest cities of the United States reached 549 in the four-week period from May 19 to June 17. Last year the . number was 493, so there was a good-sized gain. In' some cities, however, where very strong efforts have been 'made to reduce accidents, the totals have dropped. In Cleveland, for instance, there were 15 automobile deaths in the period as compared with 18 u year ago. Such percentages must be considered, also, in relation' to the, growth in number of automobiles' on the streets. A irreat manv accidents come! from the inexperienced driver and his overpacked car.
